Hi WS! ;^)
I am at almost the exact same spot with my kids. We will be reading Book 4 Chapter 4 tonight (the name escapes me but I know Faramir is introduced in this chapter).
I know what you mean about voices. By the end of the last chapter I was wondering why Tolkien had to have Gollum talk so much. ;^) My throat was SORE after that.
ALL:
Here is a link I found where a chapter by chapter discussion took place, Reading Lord of the Rings: The Final Attempt.

I opened the Dragon up early today because I'm not sure if I'll have another chance until late afternoon. So everybody start thinking about what you want to say...
Just kidding. ;^)
